Composition :
- A 3-liter glass container: Elegant and spacious, this container is ideal for housing your mini winter forest. Its transparency makes it easy to follow the evolution of your ecosystem.
- 3 coco soil chips (⌀6 cm): Providing a nutrient-rich base, these eco-friendly chips are perfect for supporting plant growth.
- 3 decorative marbles and pebbles: Add an aesthetic, natural touch to your terrarium, while helping to drain the soil.
- 3 pinus pinéa seeds: Plant these seeds to grow your own Mediterranean pines, symbols of longevity and resistance.
- A bag of pozzolan: This volcanic substrate ensures optimum drainage, preventing water accumulation and promoting root health.
- A bag of silver gravel: For a sparkling, festive finish, these gravels add a touch of elegance to your creation.
- Wood bark: For a rustic, natural look reminiscent of enchanted winter forests.
- Bear figurine: Adorable and festive, this little figurine adds a touch of enchantment and magic to your terrarium.
Growing method :
- 1. Preparing the container:Clean the glass jar thoroughly to avoid mold growth. Check that it is completely dry before adding the elements.
- 2. Layering: Start with a layer of pozzolan at the bottom of the jar (approx. 2-3 cm). This will drain off excess water and prevent root rot. Add a thin layer for an aesthetic and festive touch. Rehydrate the coconut earth platelets with a little lukewarm water before crumbling them into the jar. This layer will serve as a nutritious substrate for your seeds.
- 3. Planting the seeds: Plant the pinus pinéa seeds by pressing them lightly into the substrate (1 to 2 cm deep). Water lightly with a spray bottle to moisten the soil without soaking it.
- 4. Terrarium decoration: Arrange pebbles and decorative marbles to embellish your mini forest. Add wood bark for a more natural, wintry feel. Place the bear figurine prominently to add a fairy-tale touch.
- 5. Care and advice: Place your terrarium in a bright spot, but away from direct sunlight. Lightly spray the water once a week, making sure the soil never gets soggy. Be patient! Pines can take several weeks to germinate.
By following these steps, you'll have a magnificent Christmas terrarium that will evolve over time, and may even become a small tree for the coming festive season!
